Best parts about this book are the constant references to Dr. Marie Curie (who I wrote a paper about in middle school and worshipped) and the validation of being a woman in STEM. From thereon out, you can't really go wrong. 

Get u a man as pathetically in love with you as Levi is with Bee. Get u a girl as intelligently stupid about that love as Bee is with Levi. Get you some cats to keep you both company.

Total P&P vibes with extra you’ve got mail  layer! Super steamy and super nerdy! Love the characters, especially the RA (who is basically April from parks and rec), the cats are a blast, and I LOVE that the science is legit!!!

Even though I didn’t understand most of the scientific references, the story was cute. Levi is my dream man (tall, smart, feminist, the list goes on) and unlike Bee, I wouldn’t hesitate to stay with him. Also, I loved how much hatred toward generalized testing and old fashioned academia there was in this book - my favorite things to bitch about!
